"I was just wondering how you guys got so full that you tied up the body." The Constable Wang glared at Chen Ergou in annoyance, "You brat, try to skin me again next time, or else I'll capture you while obstructing officials' work!"

Chen Ergou was often in jail, so she wasn't afraid of him. Hearing that, she glanced at him: "You can't even joke around, you're too stingy."

"You!" Constable Wang frowned.

"Constable Wang, he's still young, don't bother with him. Seeing that the atmosphere had become tense, Lu Jinfeng anxiously tried to smooth things over.

"It's still you who knows how to talk. Your future is immeasurable." The Constable Wang patted Lu Jinfeng's shoulder as he waved to the other constables, "Don't just stand there. Move all the people and corpses away.

"Yes, boss." The constables acknowledged and went off to find the car and the body.

Constable Wang's eyes turned, and he said to Lu Jinfeng: It's not easy to bring unconscious people along, I'll trouble you to ask Chen Mu Mu Mu, to see if she has any way to wake them up, we'll take care of the case.

"There's no other way." Lu Jinfeng's attitude was firm, he immediately shook his head without thinking, "Back then, all of these medicinal powders were used to protect my life, so naturally I could do whatever I wanted to do. If it was only because of the knockout drugs, it would be easier to deal with, but these people in the courtyard inhaling a lot of poison powder, with Chen Mu's three-legged cat's medical skills, I'm afraid there's nothing that they can do."

It was obvious that he rejected her offer. However, Chen Mu Mu Mu wasn't a doctor.

Constable Wang was unwilling, but he had to give up.

The constable rushed over to find the Madam Niu and horse carriage to transport the corpses away. In the blink of an eye, the courtyard was deserted.

"Big brother, you are relatively more calm now, why are you still provoking the officials?" After the others left, Lu Jinfeng asked Chen Ergou suspiciously, "Do you have some sort of reason?"

"That group of constables must be related to the people we captured." Chen Ergou pondered, "I keep having the feeling that if those assassins were taken away by them, I would not be able to get anything out of them."

"How could this be?" While they were talking, Madam Li and Chen Mu also went out the door. Hearing Chen Ergou's words, Madam Li could not help but exclaim.

"My nose is more sensitive than anyone else's, and I can smell something that people can't smell. The first time I met the Constable Wang, I could smell a strange scent from his body, so I didn't pay much attention to it at that time. "It wasn't until he came in the door with a constable to clean up the bodies and the unconscious assassins that I noticed that the assassins also had that strange smell." Chen Ergou said.

He covered his nose, "That strange smell is too faint. If I didn't smell it carefully, I wouldn't have been able to sense it. Just now when I angered him, I was only delaying for time to confirm."

"So you're saying, the Constable Wang is in cahoots with the killers?" Chen Mu Mu drew in a breath of cold air.

Thinking about it carefully, who exactly was the Constable Wang, the number one constable under the command of the Linzhou City.

With this status, he could do more than they had imagined.

Those assassins tried to do them harm. If Constable Wang was with them, it was inevitable that they wanted to do them harm.

And before, she seemed to have a good relationship with this Constable Wang.

At the same time that she used the Constable Wang to get close to him to investigate, she exposed herself completely without any precautions.

However, if this Constable Wang was the accomplice behind the murder of Lu Daquan's family, then he would have long ago made a move against them instead of waiting until now. And now, with him being the hitman alliance, there was only one answer …

This group of assassins was not the same as the group that killed Lu Daquan.

"Probably." Chen Ergou scratched his head, "I can only smell the same scent from their bodies, but I'm not sure about anything else."

Constable Wang shouldn't be a bad person." Madame Li said, "He can be considered a distant relative of Lady Wang. He lives in the fishing village five miles away. He has been a good boy since he was young. Many people know him and say that he is an upright person. Such a person would never be able to do those heinous things.

"Perhaps the appearance that the Constable Wang has displayed is of a different nature from his." Chen Ergou said, "We should still be more careful."

Madam Li didn't want to believe that Constable Wang was a bad person and shook his head: "You guys are too reckless, you classify them based on their taste alone. If we wrongly accuse a good person and Constable Wang took good care of our family, we would let down him so much."

"But there's nothing wrong with keeping an eye on them. Our lives are at stake, so we can't be careless." Lu Jinfeng said.

"Maybe mother's idea is right." Chen Mu Mu replied, "Perhaps the people who tried to kill us last night were not from the same faction as the ones behind Gold."

When Chen Mu Mu said this, Lu Jinfeng immediately understood. After all, during this period of time, those people from the North King Palace had made quite a few assassination attempts on them. He didn't know why he didn't make a move on them during the new year, but now that the new year was over, it wasn't impossible for him to make a move again.

However, it was their words again …

Lu Jinfeng looked nice and frowned.

Things should be resolved now. If things dragged on like this, the situation would only get worse for them.

"What did you say?" The Madam Li did not understand, "You said that other than the mastermind behind the golden case, who else would want to kill us?"

Pausing, her eyes revealed a trace of fear and trepidation, "Is it the person who broke my legs?"

Lu Jinfeng and Chen Mu Mu looked at each other, unable to answer to this question, because they themselves were unsure.

Now that they were shrouded in fog, all of their thoughts were just guesses.

"Xiao Feng, Mu Mu, do you two know something?" Madam Li looked at the two of them and asked with blazing eyes, "Do you know who injured me?"

Lu Jinfeng and Chen Mu Mu Mu looked troubled, "Mother, we haven't even seen that person's true face, how could we know who he is?"

Seeing that Chen Mu Mu Mu was in a difficult situation, Chen Ergou rolled his eyes and said: "Mother, didn't you tell the policemen that you already know who injured you, and you don't want to bother about it anymore?"

Madam Li's eyes flickered, his mouth opened, but no words came out.

In the Madam Li's heart, there was a secret that even they did not know.

Chen Mu Mu and Lu Jinfeng looked at each other, and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

Madam Li was still an elder after all. She had her own considerations for what she did, and if she wasn't willing to say it, they couldn't force her either.

"Mother, you seem to be hiding something from us." It was not easy for Lu Jinfeng and Chen Mu to speak, but Chen Ergou did not have any qualms as he stared at Madam Li, "Mother, we are now grasshoppers on the same boat, we are both mutually humiliating ourselves, if you know something, you can say it, we can discuss it after we have everything in our hearts, if not we would be at a loss, we would all be in a passive situation."

When these words reached their hearts, Chen Mu and Lu Jinfeng turned around and looked towards Madam Li, waiting for the latter's next words.

Madam Li's eyes flashed as he yawned and said: "The sun is shining today and we are trapped in the spring. I will go take a rest first, you guys can chat."

As he spoke, he ignored the reactions of the others and left.

This place was as good as three hundred taels of silver.

The three of them looked at each other, and Chen Ergou said: "Mother Qian must have something that was hidden from us, perhaps she even knows who injured her."

Thinking deeper, maybe Madam Li knew the origins of those people who came to kill them last night.

After some thought, he became fearful. Chen Mu Mu Mu knocked his head and helplessly spread out his hands. "What's the point of you knowing? Mother isn't willing to speak, we can't just use rough methods to force her."

"That's hard." Chen Ergou shook his head, "A family can easily take advantage of the pressure."

His eyes looked at Lu Jinfeng thoughtfully. Lu Jinfeng pursed his lips and did not say a word.

He knew the reasoning behind it, but he also knew the temperament of Madam Li.

If she was willing to say it, she would have said it a long time ago. Now that they were so perplexed and passive that they were unwilling to speak, it meant that she didn't want them to know no matter what.

"Lu Jinfeng." After a moment of silence, Chen Mu Mu Mu Mu probed, "If you have the time, you can check out your mother's words."

Just probing and obtaining information was a joyous affair for him. Even if he couldn't obtain it, it didn't matter.

Seeing Chen Mu Mu's cautious appearance, Lu Jinfeng gave a chuckle. "Alright."

He understood Chen Mu Mu Mu's meaning, other than him, there was probably no one else in this world who could dig out information from the Madam Li.

Right now, they were in too much of a passive situation. It was one thing for them to get some information.

While he was speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"Bang, bang, bang."

"Who else would visit at this time?" Chen Ergou's face twitched.

These days, due to the terrifying death case in the Xingyu Village, it had caused everyone to feel threatened, especially those close to the Lu Family. Those villagers would always keep a distance from them. In their family, Lu Dayi and Lu Daquan were brothers, while Lu Jinfeng was the grandson of the Madam Niu, the villagers were all discussing behind their backs, who would dare to look for them at this juncture?

What's more, Constable Wang had just brought a group of police to bring out more than 10 people from their homes. The good news was definitely seen by the villagers, they were too scared of them and could not wait, who would come?

As for those police officers, they carried so many people and corpses out. It was said that the culprits of the murders of the families in the Apricot Rain Village and the Luo Family Village were definitely running off to claim their rewards. How could they turn back and come back and reminisce about the old days?

"God knows." Chen Mu Mu shrugged his shoulders, "Since you're already here, go ahead and open the door."

Under the clear sky, even if someone wanted to, they wouldn't be able to cause a ruckus.

After Chen Ergou heard this, he opened the door.

Not long after, Chen Ergou returned, followed by a tall and handsome man. The man carried a sword on his back, and on his left hand was a cute boy.

"Big Sister Chen." The moment the boy saw Chen Mu Mu Mu, he rushed towards her happily.

"It's you guys?" Chen Mu Mu moved to the side, avoiding the child's pounce as she coldly stared at the two people before her.
